16cm empire skjerm i grågrønn egg & spoon silk ikat

The ikat pattern is even more striking in person, with a subtle colour shift that catches the light beautifully. The silk feels luxurious and lightweight, and it drapes perfectly over the shade. Exactly the soft, stylish look I was hoping for in my reading nook.

The silk is so featherlight and billowy that the grey-green ikat pattern almost looks like it's floating, and the gathered folds give it this lovely soft drama. I keep walking past the lamp just to admire how the shade catches the light.

The silk feels much more luxurious than the price would suggest, and the grey green colour is a perfect neutral with a subtle pop. The gathered ikat pattern looks intricate and well-made, not cheap. My only small wish is that it were a touch larger, but the 16cm size works nicely in a cluster.
